 * Delete This probably could have been PROD'd, but it's cool. After doing a search, results did not show anything remotely consistent with the article (what a surprise!).  The term apparently refers to something in Spanish, but it definitely isn't what the current page is about.  No coverage in independent sources.  I wish there was a speedy delete for pages like this.

 * Redirect to Goalball. The "something in Spanish" referred to by Jethro appears to be a misspelling of Goalball. Given that (at least for Spanish speakers) Gaalball appears to be a somewhat plausible misspelling, the best solution may be to redirect. --Lambiam 12:32, 10 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Goalball Good catch, Lambiam. I'm striking my support for deletion in favor a redirect. I, Jethrobot drop me a line (note: not a bot!) 15:30, 10 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Redirect to goalball. It might be wise to preemptively protect the redirect, but I guess this is typically frowned upon. Lady  of  Shalott  02:26, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
